CHANEL New Buys

Well..CHANEL CHANEL CHANEL

I love the name, the brand, the style, the makeup, apart from the price.

however, Ive just bought some new face products and I think the price of it is worth it.

1. Lotion Purete

2 Gel Purete

These two combined are the perfect solution for my face. It significantly reduces the amount of excess oil from my nose area and really mattifys the entire face.

Next is the make up.

1. ILLUSION D'OMBRE Eyeshadow

2.SOIN TENDRE LÈVRES Hydrating Lip Treatment

3.EXCEPTIONNEL DE CHANEL Intense Volume and Curl Mascara tester.

These are all you need for a smoky or simple look. I love the new eyeshadow as it can act like a liner too. It also has a simmer inside too so it can be used for night time parties too.

Fresh as a Daisy

Sorry to everyone who follow my blog, I haven't been posting lately. Have you ever had the feeling where everything you once thought was right or true becomes wrong and isn't actually what you think it may be? Well to me, its a new part of life and its what makes you grow up and become who you are. I'm going into my final year of study soon and then I have to choose my path of life. I want to open a restaurant in a busy city which shows class and elegance with real food. Will it really come true?Back to blogging, I have much more spare time now so I hope I can post a few more articles for you all.

LANCOME is my new discovery, I truly love their skincare and I can feel that it really does great wonders to my skin. Even though the price is of the higher end of the market but it is truly worth it.

1. Lancome Mousse Eclat Face foaming wash

2. Tonique Douceur

Both of these skincare products are great to use together. I've used it for around 2 weeks and its made my skin very soft and fresh. It does not dry my skin either. When using this I've also minimised the amount of foundation I use. Sometimes when I go out I only apply on a thin layer of powder to create a Matt effect and that's all I need with a bit of lip gloss. Now I can sleep for longer!!

Also, When I came back from University, my dad bought me some flowers! How nice of him!

Its all about Origins!!

My new buy is dispatched for delivery!! :D I was looking on YouTube before about reviews of the Estee Lauder Serums, and came across a review of a daily routine. To my surprise, I found out that I haven't been using a toner for a long time now, maybe that's why my face is gotten worse. So this lady on YouTube was talking how Origins and Estee Lauder make a good combination. Seen as how I'm using Estee Lauder anyways, I thought I have a look at the toner collection from Origins.

Origins is a very natural company, as they say 'Powered by Nature, Proven By Science', I decided to give them a try. I've Purchased 2 new products which are:

1. GinZing eye cream £20 15ml

This Eye cream contains the ingredients of Caffeine from Coffee bean, Panax Ginseng, Magnolia Extract and natural optic brighteners. It can help me with long nights as it has a refreshing feels which reduces puffiness and dark circles. Perfect for those long "study" nights.

2. Purifying Tonic toner 150ml £19

This apparently is one of the best toners on the market. It contains salicycid acid and organic vinegar. It helps tighten pores and also clean them to give a brings refreshing feel. Organic Vinegar allows the removal of dry skin leaving your skin smooth and Matt.

If you do decide to try it and buy online, Origins is giving 2 free samples with online purchases. Also when u sign up for an account, remember to take the e-mail discount voucher for free delivery before buying the products, I only found out I had the voucher when I bought the stuff so I was too late. At least it saves you £4 delivery!!

Tell me how it goes, I will update about this product later to tell you about how the product actually works for me when i recieve them :D

My Inspiration

Many people making fashion and beauty blog's have something they aim for, We want to express our feelings and thoughts from our appearance. Fashion and beauty can be a real strong sense of feeling from confidence to loving and warmth.

What really inspire me the most is of course Michelle Phan, my all time make up and fashion goddess. she's featured on you tube, Facebook, blog, you name it. She has also become a representative for Lacome and has her own brand called IQQU. I've purchased their products before and I love the cute brushes they do!.

Another person is of course her friend Christelle, She is a really good fashion goddess and shes shown me a lot of ways to dress. I wish I could dress even 50% like her! I never have the guts to go that far and always go more to the safe side of fashion.

My top 5 wanted fashion items list:

1. Hermes Handbag

Hermes shows a different attitude and style towards your look.

2. Alexander McQueen Flesh Optic Double Wrap Bracelet

This bracelet give your look an extra boost!

3, 4 & 5 Topshop Jacket,

I really don't know which ones I love them all!! Jackets can change your look instantly, even if your inside is not very nice, your jacket will finish the look for you.

OFF WHITE QUILTED LONG LEATHER BIKER JACKET

• Price: £180.00
• 
  

BLACK 3/4 SLEEVE OPEN BLAZER

• Price: £65.00

SILVER GREY DOUBLE LAYER BIKER JACKET

• Price: £80.00

Eyes can be one of the most important features for you. It can ref

lect on many different moods you are in. We all know especially, if we have a bad sleep it can do horrible things to our eyes. it can cause dark circles or baggy eyes. We need to spend so much time to make them look better and to cover our ugly side.

What I usually tend to do is...use false eyelashes.

For a daily basis, I choose to use thin natural false eyelashes just to give my eye a little more boost. It opens my eyes more and makes me look more awake

It is an necessity!!

Just apply foundation, here I'm using

Bobbi Brown Illuminating Finish Powder Compact Foundation SPF 12

Bronzer/blushes

Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder

Eye Liner

Bobbi Brown Long Wear Eye-liner Gel

False Lashes

and it will automatically make you more wide awake and of course cuter and girlier!

3 Minute Face Mask! HEAVEN!!

Hey guys,

I was shopping in boots and came across this lovely face mask. Not only it looks good but it also smells lovely. It is from No7, and called Heavenly Hydration Moisture Mask, and like whipped cream. From what I can see it has two different creams inside, one is a pink colour and the other is a see through gel. When you pump it out, they mix and act as a rich hydrating cream mask which deeply moisturises your skin effortlessly.

Use the mask when you shower or bath, for 3 minutes, 10 minutes when you feel it is needed, and your skin will feel refreshed. I noticed when washing it off, it seemed to leave an oily texture, therefore it would be ideal to wash of with your usual face wash afterwards. The instructions also tells me that I can also leave on a thin layer when going to sleep as it will therefore soak in and leave my skin feeling beautiful when I wake up.

Give it a go!

It will be a good time to buy it when they have the £5 off No7 products too

XD

Summer fashion

Summer dresses

The weather is beautuful these few days and its a great chance to change your wardrobe with a colourful appearance!! I recently bought this dress from Topshop (£32) and it does exactly what I need. It creates a beautiful canvas for me to work with, with a black edge to define its look. The dress is not too short or long and therefore allow you to show a feminine attitude.

This can be suited with a brown thin belt to enhance the waist and also with a pair of sunglasses to complete the look. You can also hide a pair of footless tights (Topshop £8) in your bag incase it gets cold at night.

Nail crazy

In my spare time i like to go a little crazy with my nails. Here's my latest look step by step

1. Buff nails and shape then apply base coat


2. Apply a natural colour to allow an even tone.

3. Apply a glitter colour nail varnish to the tip. I didnt apply with a straight edge to give a more natual effect.


5. Apply nail stickers. Any way any colour you like. It gives it an extra 'Wow' :D
and finnaly apply clear varnish to seal it all together.

There can be many styles and effect that colours and stickers can give you. It all depends on how you create it.

Happy Sticking!

Nice and Natural

I LOVE PAPERCHASE!! I went shopping the other day and I bought some goodies from Paperchase. The things in there are soo cute! Dont you agree?

Colour: Beige style

Sally Henson Review

Right its been 5 days...and.... The results for the product is..POSITIVE!! No im not pregnant!!

I think that the product (Previous Blog) really does help your nail grow and they also become healther. The good thing is that non of my nails have snapped or split which is a good sign. Faster growing wise...well just like what the box said, they have grown faster than expected and they are very strong. Now time for nail varnish! :D

I apply the product on every day and sometimes add colour nail varnish ontop just so it looks better as the nail growth does make your nails look a little dull when you have it on. I went into the local drug store and saw this amazing colour from NYC.

colour :242B Uptown

Sally Hensen Nail Growth Miracle

My nails have suddenly become very slow at growing and tend to chip and snap quite easily. Therefore from doing some reaseach, I've recently bought this set of Sally Hensen nail care products. The set came with two products which are :

1. Sally Hensen Nail growth Miracle (Salon Strength) (Gold Bottle)
2. Sally Hensen Diamond Radiance hand & Cuticle Polish (Silver Bottle)


Lets talk about the 1st one. This product was stated on the box by applying one coat a day you will have 30% longer nails in 5 Days GUARANTEED!! Do you believe it? I started my 1st day and will keep you informed in 5 days time about if the product is really guaranteed. What do you guys think? The product has soy protein which is supposed to help nail strengthen without brittleness. It also includes Keratin to act as a protector to the nail reducing the risk of splitting, cracking and tearing. Collagen is also a part of the ingredients which is a very good multi vitamin source to help the healthy growth process.

The 2Nd product is a little exfoliate scrub which you apply to the nail and cuticle and rub for 60 seconds. It exfoliates the dry and flaky skin to reveal healthier looking skin. It includes micronized diamond powder to enhance the smoothness with other ingredients such as Shea butter and ceramide. Use once a week, but I like using every few days just to give it a bit more uuumphh! :D

The must have daily Facemask!!

I recently bought this face mask online for £7 and it is really good and shows very fast signs of actions quickly. It is concentrated in the energy-intensive cells of the heart and also acts as a powerful antioxidant. This really is a treat for your skin on a tired day. Ive used this mask twice and already I can already begin to feel the firmness and changes to my skin.

The masks come in a little cute box consisting of 26 masks in an easy pull and reseal box to allow daily easy uses. I tend to use my on a night time before bed when im skin is all relaxed. Simply clean and wash your face then apply the mask for 10min. Afterwards you can either leave the essence on for a bit longer and rinse face and dry followed with your daily skincare products.


I like to turn the box upside down 15minutes before using to allow the liquid to trave to the top of the box or the face mask may appear to be dry. Anyways enough talking...This is a must buy item!!

Chanel Eyeliner

Yes..I splashed out again.. My new purchase...Chanel Long Extreme Liquid Eyeliner £21(Black). I've used many different types, sort, colour and brand of eyeliner. and I reccomend this one. Because it has a very fine brush which allows precise application giving you the look you always wanted. I also like having a little flick at the corner, and this brush does it perfectly. Ive used eye liner brushes but they seem to be too thick or have other problems. This one is 100% the best that I have used.

I like using this eyeliner with my Bobbi Brown Gel liner becase it gives a more natural and subtle look rather than being sharp. I applied it once and it lasts through the whole day and is also smudge proof. However, this product takes practice so if your not used to using liquid eyeliner, Chanel does another liquid liner which may be easier to use. I really recommend this product to you!

Estee Lauder goodies!!

I recently purchased a moisturiser from Estee Lauder. It is the Hydrationist Cream moisturiser £32, and it is heaven! I've used many Estee Lauder products before, but this one is really good and it stands out! The first application leaves your skin feeling refreshed and nourished, and of course hydrated to the maximum. Even though many people may assume that this brand is for a older generation in the market, e.g. for anti-ageing. But to me, I think that it is essential to protect before you get those wrinkles and lines because it will take much more effort and time to repair.


While I bought the moisturiser, I also picked up some goodies and samples which are also amazing. The delivery came with a little bag of samples ranging from eye/yeux cream to moisturiser. I love all of them and I may actually consider purchasing the full size product and that's just after one day. They include Advanced Night Repair Serum, Pore Minimizing Skin refresher Serum, Sumptuous Bold Volume lifting Mascara, Resilience Lift Extreme (Ultra Firming) Eye Cream and the new Day Wear Sheer Tint Moisturiser.

I think the products I'm liking the most is the Ultra Firming Eye Cream, £35. It has a creamy and oily texture at the beginning but it soaks into your skins very fast and feels very good. The fact that it is ultra firming, eliminates droopy eye lids and creates a fresh and bright feeling allowing you to look healthier and refreshed. The fact that it is firming, reduces the signs and risks of wrinkles, giving you a younger look. I think this is a must buy item!!

Another product which I think is really good is the Pore minimizing skin refresher serum £50. I've been using this product for over a year now, and it really does make a difference. Even though it is expensive it lasts a long time and shows effect on the first use. I love this product because it really does minimize the pores especially around your nose area. After removing blackheads, simply apply an even coverage around the area and there will be none or very faint blemishes or redness the next day. Just apply after toner, before moisturiser.

Im in love!

I have been keeping my eyes on these boots for a long time and they are finally on sale!! I bought these boots from River Island, and they are lush! they were £74.99 and now £50!! I wore them to go shopping today and they were more comfortable than many other boots i have bought. The boots comes in brown, black and cream and are very stylish!

I bought another Bobbi Brown product. This product is a must buy, I know I say it all the time but this one is perfect and really easy to use. This is a Foundation Stick £27, I love this product because it is long lasting and you dont really need much to have an even coverage. The fact that the product is in a stick, you can really apply it on any way you like, with your hands, a brush or a sponge. Also you only get as much you want every time therefore there will be no waste. I've used the liquid foundation and you always have to pour out how much you want and sometimes there is too much and therefore is wasted.


There can be many uses for this product too. You can use it as the main foundation base or as a touch up because it is soo easy to put in your bag or make up pouch. You can also use it as a concealer because the creamy formula is soo nice on your skin and also creates a perfect coverage. This product can do anything!!

Express with colours

Now my assignments are finished and handed in, I can concentrate more with the blog. I went to my friends birthday meal on the weekend, and she introduced me to this nail varnish, it is soo good but quite hard to use at first time. It is a black nail varnish from Barry M, for around £3 if I remember. This black nail varnish, has a crackling effect and it creates a stunning pattern expecially when mixing with different colours as base. In the image, is just one of my colour choices. Does anyone know if they do anymore of the crackling polish in different colours?

1. Apply any colour of base coat, Allow to dry
2. Apply strokes of the black crackling nail varnish, without overlapping, as the label says.
3. Watch it crackle
4. Seal with top coat.

I also adore Nails Inc. polish, this is because it is soo easy to apply and the quality is perfect. Many of the colour ranges they have are soo unique and you cant find them anywhere else. below is a collection of my favourite colours.


Bored of plain nail polish? I tackled this problem, and purchased nail art stickers! They are the best when you just want an extra little kick which is quick and easy! They come in all shapes and sizes, colours, texture etc. They are quite cheap in some places too, I bought a huge amount in hong kong because they have soo many styles, I didnt know which ones to choose!
